C++ | Avoiding Move Semantics

TL;DR AI
2 min readKey summary
The article argues that even C++ move semantics can carry overhead when objects are stored in containers like std::vector.
It shows that a custom allocator and pointer-based storage can bypass moves and reduce container overhead.
This approach also avoids automatic destructor behavior, shifting lifetime management from RAII to manual control.
The tradeoff is better low-level performance at the cost of safety, simplicity, and automatic cleanup.
